Hi Carolyn, Ive had both hips done By Dr, William Davidson of San Diego Orthpaedic Associates. He operates at Mercy Hospital. I heartily recommend him for your fathers THR. I was only in the hospital for 3 days with each operation. I used crutches for about 6 weeks. I did exercises at home first with a visiting physical therapist and the second time on my own. I am 64 years old, so my recovery time is not that of a young person. You can reach Dr. Davidsons office at 619-299-8500. Your father will be glad you did. Jack
